anyone have the KC Slimlights on the front of their rangers? id like to see a set before i go spending that kind of money on them.

 

click the link in my signature...it'll take you to my cardomain, which has a bunch of pics of the chrome slimlites

 

 

Ive got the pro-comp slims on my truck, they're black, have the 55w H3 bulbs, and only $17! They are a hell of a lot brighter then my headlights.

 

I owned a pair of those for a while... he lives in ohio with in 1 winter with salt up here they where a rust ball there is a reason there $17 cause there painted with crappy cheap *** paint...

 

Do you have to flame everything that you don't like?

 

 

no i tell people the truth about something so they don't have to buy it and find out when i know first hand i have owned those lights in a winter clement i bet where he is where they don't use salt all winter those lights will hold up but after 1 winter they are rusty pos's... sorry the truth hurts you poor boy...

 

THIS IS UNCCRANG IN THE MIDDLE WITH LIGHTS ON a GREAT PHOTO AT NIGHT

I myself have a set of Hella 500 lights not installed as of yet

 

I've got a set on mine, also. Check my car domain site, there's several up close pics.

 

Heres mine....

 

yayy my pictures were already posted thanks hoe-me

 

^^Lmfao, i never knew i made it to your sig

 

they may have a "crappy"(as you call it) paint job, but think about it, any light's paint job will rust over time when in salt. I would rather pay the 34 for two then the hundreds for the others, if it's really just gonna rust out. And there is always something called rustolem or herculiner. the backs of mine are coated in herculiner, so ya know, I beleive my $34 lights will last for quite a while. OR, for 30$ a piece you can get stainless ones. But then again, even stainless will rust over time. replacement bulbs for procomps, like 5 bucks, or just buy another light, for KC's, would someone like to share? but I beleive around 50, at least thats what my friend is telling me. Just my .02

 

really all lights rust? nope... wrong o... my 100% STAINLESS STEEL KC lights um well DON'T rust, it has been 3 winters they have been on and well not one sign of rust and i have even had them apart nothing inside eather... and btw spending "hundred's" as you call it... KC also comes with a 23 YEAR warranty that includes RUST and bulb BURN OUT... if they rust send them back you get a brand new set... no questions... same with bulbs they burn out send it back..... after owning 2 yes TWO sets of those pro comps i wouldn't even waste my time with them anymore.. and you call them "bright" for a 55w light i had two sets of the same one's you have with the Fluted lens. beleave me compared to any KC light they are extremely dim i was highly disappointed with them..

 

its all about personal opinions. some ppl just dont have the money to drop on lights. im happy with them, and I used to have 5 kc 100s on top and was happy with them, but they were unnecessary for my uses, the Pro-comps are just a cheap alternative for those who dont want to spend the mucho money on kcs or hellas. sure they may not be as good, but for my usases, they are more then enough. I am not dissing KCs, Hellas, or PIAAs, saying their bad lights, im just merely putting the pro comps out there. Ive not had any rusting problems with mine, and I get on the beach every year with it over the summer every weekend.

Oh and I never said they were bright for 55w, just brighter then my headlights. But they do well enough for my uses.

and yea, Id have to agree with you, KCs are brighter, but is that MAYBE because of them running a higher wattage, say 100w or 130w for the slimlites. Ive not found a 55w KC slimlite, point me in the direction of it if you can find it.

 

I used to have 55watt walmart lights.....they are now on my ATV....i got 2 sets of KC lights (slim lights and long range lights) and they are 100% worth the money.....with the warrantee and the brightness i will never waste my money on fog lights again...

Rocky

 

ya, I dont recommend anything from walmart

 

I have a few pics of mine on my Yahoo autos thingy. The link is in my sig.

 

thanks for the pictures guys. I'm totally sold on the KC's but I'm going to get an alternator at the same time. I'm afraid of toasting the stock one running the stereo and the KC's at the same time. Even though the KC's wouldn't be on all the time since I'd get the long range lights.

 

do you have yours mounted on jusnes light tabs Rocky?

 

i decided to use hella lamps because a certain person seems to have an orgasm whenever someone mentions the word kc.

 

you would be fine for a decent while..

 

yea I am at work right now but I have gotten pics of my lights as for the reason the forum was open as for the SLIM LIGHTS the Procomp I do like those and as far as KC's yes I like them but its all in the USES of the light holder lol I am already pushing 60 watt bulbs in all my lights besides headlamps not to mention my backup lights will soon reach OVER 100 Feet and for all my bulbs for those that know what it means they are GOLD TIP for those that dont they produce BRIGHTER LIGHT than normal bulbs yes I am a Looney when it comes to lights ...... BORED no business

 

I was thinking of getting a 130 amp alternator from Jusnes. That should be plenty. It's not like they'll be on all the time. I just don;t want to factory alternator overworking itself.
